Starting XI: Costa, Mario, Pepe, Otavio, Wendell, Varela, Gonzalez, Conceicao, Pepe, Galeno, Evanilson

Subs: Eustaquio, Grujic, Ramos, Sanchez, Jaime, Loader, Franco, Baro, Martinez, Borges, Ze Pedro, Cardoso.

Conceicao's Saturday victory over Estrela was not quite the ideal evening, as left-back Zaidu Sanusi had to be taken out in the 32nd minute due to a full rupture of his anterior cruciate ligament, sidelining the Nigerian for the rest of the campaign.
Conceicao should rely upon Jorge Sanchez to join the hosts' defensive shield, which still includes 40-year-old veteran Pepe, as Sanusi is one of two Dragons defenders carrying ACL injuries. Ivan Marcano has little chance of recovering by the end of the season.

Emile Smith Rowe recovered from his ankle issue in time to start on the bench against Burnley, while Takehiro Tomiyasu (knock), Oleksandr Zinchenko (calf), and Gabriel Jesus (knee) were not cleared to play and are still questionable.
Though included in the Gunners' squad for the knockout stages, Jurrien Timber is also recovering from an ACL injury. Meanwhile, Fabio Vieira (groin) and Thomas Partey (thigh) are nearing full recovery from surgeries and were observed participating in team training on Tuesday.
